Matrix 12 now we talking
Pure
“it is an honor that I can do all the stunts by my self”
Riding the Scree
Open entry, taken from the soccer winning goal entry: Winning Soccer Goal :: Celebration (franciscocharrua.com). I changed his expression from celebrating to worried while eating sushi.

Dive
Pure, cycles, 32 samples, toon shader, optix denoiser, rendertime <1min., all made in blender, tried to water color it in krita but my skills lack there so just a simple coloring in blender which is simple but makes a point.
Please i have one question. If i used background image to totally background of my entry. Is it pure or open entry?
Even for ‘pure’ entries, using a background image is fine as long as it isn’t the main focus of the image. It wouldn’t be fair to just enter a photo. (For ‘open’ images, this doesn’t matter at all.)
OPEN entry “Flying through Tianmen Cave”
“Miscalculation”
Pure. Blender 2.69, Blender render. Smoke added post in Paint.net.
It’s been a couple years since I last participated. Had to relearn everything, including how to post.
Hey! Welcome back.
If you are going to relearn everything, this might be a good opportunity for switching to Blender 3.3 (if your hardware supports it).
Pure. The Human Cannonball! I see at least one other had a similar idea.
Nice to see you are still hosting Helge.
Unfortunately I am still using the same 15 year old Computer I was before, so anything 2.70 and beyond is out of the question for now.
Huggies,
My human canonball was my third idea. I started with a high dive, then a Hot Wheels stunt track but quickly realized I need something basic until I get my chops back.
Surprisingly, now that my daughter just left for college I find I have more free time than I used to.
Attempt #2
Open, Cycles 128s, 100% Blender 3.3
The character base, cloud generator, and sky background are from other projects.
The daredevil explorer and pilot, Mr. Balloon Man, is testing a new flying contraption. He crashed the first time, but he’s trying again, this time with a loop-de-loop.
Suzanne cloud: Why aren’t you wearing a crash helmet?!
Last Jump
The motorcycle was some good hard surface practice, although I’ve never modeled a motorcycle before so it took me a couple tries. The sculpt of Evel himself is pretty simple, and the background of his red, white, and blue smoke machines and the clouds is just a simple painted plane with some vector displacements using perlin noise.
Great entries so far! My personal favorites are @Gismo_Wander and @Helge. They’re both very out of the box compared to the rest of us and I’m a pretty big fan of the composition on both!
Helge is a great example to me:
His works are always clean and so creativ. It’s a great honor for me to hear my name this way alongside with his name.
Probably more than it should do.
Yes, but this one is easily part of my head cannon
@Wayth Love the lighting and grass on yours!
Had not much time, poor Zuzanne had to jump in again
Is this a reference to the movie Kick Ass?
